-- at the agency HQ --
"Agent Tachi, the boss wants to see you in his office immediately."
It was the thin, grave-looking secretary. His face always had the same annoying expression on it.
"Fine, I'll come with you."
The secretary turned and walked towards the boss' office, as Tachi followed behind him.
"Tachi, you've made a mess this time, haven't you?"
The secretary was known to be a quiet, but extremely cruel man. He hardly spoke words beyond the boss' orders, and had legendary skills that no one had lived to witness firsthand.
A shiver ran down Tachi's back.
Why did he have to be so impulsive! But looking at that ignorant woman...he couldn't help himself.
"It's none of your business, Senior."
He was known as 'Senior' by all the agents and employees of the agency. Nobody knew his identity or his real name. Only the boss knew.
Senior just scoffed.
"Watch yourself, Tachi. Or your corpse will be hung out to dry."
